D MajorD B minorBm A#A# A augmentedA


Verse 1:
D MajorD      B minorBm   F#F#
I am not a dog on a chain
A#A#      A augmentedA
I use my own brain
D MajorD   B minorBm          A#A#
I can turn the conversation off
           A augmentedA
I'm too clever to be robbed
D MajorD     B minorBm    A#A#
I am not a dog on a chain
        A augmentedA
Thanks all the same
D MajorD        B minorBm     A#A#
I have patience and I have time
         A augmentedA
Both of which are mine

Refrain:
     G+G       A augmentedA
I hear a call, I hear a cry
  A#A#       C majorC
I raise my voice, I have no choice
  G+G         A augmentedA
I raise my hand, I hammer twice
  A#A#       FF
I see no point in being nice


Verse 2:
D MajorD      B minorBm
I am not a dog on a chain
  A#A#    A augmentedA
I use my own brain
 D MajorD       B minorBm
I do not read newspapers
A#A#       A augmentedA
They are troublemakers
D MajorD        B minorBm         A#A#
Listen out for what's not shown to you
              A augmentedA
And there you'll find the truth
   D MajorD     B minorBm       A#A#
For in a civilized and careful way
               A augmentedA
They'll sculpture all your views

Refrain:
   G+G      A augmentedA
So open up your nervous mouth
       A#A#          C majorC
And feel the words come streaming out
  G+G         A augmentedA
In volume, pitch and rising cries
 A#A#          C majorC
Opening your blinkered eyes
   G+G          A augmentedA
For otherwise, you'll never know
     A#A#   C majorC        G+G
Who you are or all that you can do
     A augmentedA        A#A#
If you want to, if you want to
       C majorC
If you want to

D MajorD  C majorC   A#A#  A augmentedA  D MajorD  C majorC  A#A#  A augmentedA


Verse 3:
D MajorD      B minorBm     A#A#
I am not a dog on a chain
          A augmentedA
You've got to be insane
 D MajorD     B minorBm        A#A#
One is company and two is a crowd
         A augmentedA
And crowds are loud


Refrain:
    G+G         A augmentedA
Oh, maybe I'll be skinned alive
      A#A#           C majorC
By Canada Goose because of my views
         G+G         A augmentedA
Because of the truth, because of my fleece
          A#A#        C majorC
Because of my niece, like drinking ink, the
    G+G
words explode
       A augmentedA          A#A#
Fatter than fists, louder than blows
       C majorC          G+G
Fatter than fists, louder than blows
        A augmentedA         A#A#
The dead are dead, ice cold and hard
               C majorC
To where they can't be overcharged
     G+G         A augmentedA
They have no breath, they have no eyes
    A#A#           C majorC
At least they won't be going twice

D MajorD  C majorC   A#A#  A augmentedA  D MajorD  C majorC  A#A#  A augmentedA


Outro:
